Heart sounds

Terms

undefined, object
copy deck
-holosystolic, high-pitched blowing murmur -loudest at apex and radiates toward axilla
MR/TR -MR is often caused by ischemic HD, MVP, or LV dilation -TR is loudest at tricuspid area and radiates to R sternal border; due to RV dilation or endocarditis
-crescendo-decrescendo systolic ejection murmur -follows ejection click -radiates to carotids/apex
AS -LV>>aortic pressure -pulsus parvus et tardus, pulses weak compared to heart sounds -can lead to syncope
-holosystolic, harsh-sounding murmur -loudest at tricuspid area
VSD
-late systolic murmur -midsystolic click
MVP -most common valvular lesion -usually benign -can predispose to infective endocarditis -loudest at S2
immediate high-pitched blowing diastolic murmur
AR -wide pulse pressure when chronic -often due to aortic root dilation, bicuspid aortic valve, rheumatic fever
-delayed rumbling late diastolic murmur -follows opening snap
MS -LA>>LV during diastole -secondary to rheumatic fever
continuous machine-like murmur
PDA -loudest at S2
-occurs in early diastole during rapid ventricular filling -more common in dilated ventricles
S3
-late diastole -high atrial pressure -associated with ventricular hypertrophy
S4 "atrial kick"
